While you could simply try one of your Product/License Keys and see if it gets accepted, it’s not a very sophisticated approach.
The proper method to determine or change the Product Key depends on your version of Office or Outlook. However, for either version there is no need to completely reinstall Office.
Note: Office 365 installations don’t require a license key as they activate automatically when you log on to Office with your Microsoft Account. The same applies to Office 2016 and Office 2019 licenses that are linked to your Microsoft Account.
Find license keys for Office 2010, Office 2013, Office 2016 and Office 2019 via a script
Office 2010 and later include a vbs-script which will reveal the last 5 characters of your Product Key. It’s pretty safe to state that these 5 characters would already be more than enough to find out which Product Key you have used (as you should already have safely stored the full Product Key code somewhere else together with your other license information).
You can run the vbs-file in the following way;
- Open a command prompt. For instance via:
- Start-> type:
cmd
- Start-> type:
- In the command prompt, type the following:
- Office 2016/2019 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2016/2019 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice16OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2016/2019 (64-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice16OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2013 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2013 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice15OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2013 (64-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2010 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice14OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2010 (32-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice14OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2010 (64-bit) on a 64-bit version of Windows
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice14OSPP.VBS' /dstatus
- Office 2016/2019 (32-bit) on a 32-bit version of Windows

Office offers a scripted method to lookup your Product Key.
Changing the Product Key for Office 2010 / 2013 / 2016 / 2019
Changing the Product Key for msi-based installations of Office can be done directly from the Control Panel/Apps & Features or via a command line.
Product Keys for Click-to-Run based installations of Office can only be modified via the command line.
- Windows 10
Start-> Settings-> Apps & Features - Windows 7 and Windows 8
Start-> Control Panel-> Uninstall a Program
Here, locate your Office application and press Modify or Change. Setup will now start with the option “Enter a Product Key” which allows you to enter a different product key.
To change the Product Key via a command line, you can use the same OSPP.VBS script as mentioned before. Instead of using the
/dstatus
switch, you must use the /inpkey:value
switch where you should replace value
for your Product Key.Changing the Product Key for Office XP/2002 / 2003 / 2007
Changing the Product Key for Office 2007 or previous requires you to go into the Registry.
- Browse to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice<version>Registration
- Now is a good point to make a backup of that key;
Right click on the key, choose Export… and save the file to for instance your Desktop. - Expand the Registration key in the Registry and you’ll see one or more sub keys which contain a lot of characters between curly brackets: { and }
Each sub key stands for an installed Office application.
The proper name for this identifier string is called a “GUID”. - Click on the sub key to reveal its contents in the right pane.
TheSuitName
key will reveal the name of the package that you have installed. If you have multiple GUID sub keys listed, you can use this key name to determine for which installation you’ll be changing the Product Key. - In the pane on the right, delete the following keys:
DigitalProductID
ProductID
- Close the Registry and start Outlook (or any other Office application); you’ll now be prompted to fill in your Product Key and activate Office again.
Delete the DigitalProductID and ProductID key to reset your Product Key.
Determine the Product Key with a 3rd party tool
Determining the used Product Key when using Office 2007 or previous isn’t directly supported by Microsoft. However, you can use a little program called Magic Jelly Bean Keyfinder to find out your used Product Key. Simply install and run the application to find out the Product Key (note: during the installation, there will be a prompt to also install a sponsored application which you can choose not to install).
Another free application which you can use is Belarc Advisor. This application does a bit more thorough scan of your computer for which it generates a report that also includes license keys for several of your installed applications. If you are in a large corporate network, you might want to disconnect your network connection as it will also try to build a network map which may cause the application to appear to hang at the “checking the local network of this computer” stage.

I installed Office 2013 and put in the product key when it asked me to. After typing in the product key, it allowed me to use MS Word once. After I closed MS Word and went to reopen it the next day, it said the product key I entered was incorrect (maybe I typed it in incorrectly). It asked me to change it. I tried opening MS word and clicking File -> Account but was unable to change the product key from there.
I then went to control panel -> uninstall a program and then clicked on Office 2013 and clicked 'change' but it gave me no option to change the product key. So I decided to uninstall and reinstall it.
I uninstalled it and then went to reinstall it with the setup file and now it is giving me an error saying:
The first product key I entered seems to be saved somewhere. How do I delete / change it?

Depending on the combination of Office 2013 and Window version you might have to change the path to Program Files(x86)
Here is the sequence that should work for (x64 Windows -> x64 Office) and (x86 Windows -> x86 Office):
- Open cmd prompt
- Run the following commands:
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15ospp.vbs' /dstatus
Note down the partial product key(s) (there can be multiple)
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15ospp.vbs' /unpkey:partial_key
This will uninstall an installed product key with partial product key you noted earlier. Uninstall all of the keys.
Now you should be able to add it from Control Panel the usual way. Or you can use:
Xilisoft video converter platinum registration code. The application interface is clear and very easy to navigate.
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15ospp.vbs' /inpkey:new_full_key
Then you need to activate it.
cscript 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15ospp.vbs' /act
Microsoft Office 2013 Crack Key
Just for update: Still works in Office 2016, you just need to change 'Office15' to 'Office16'.
